Nashville Tennessee Coral Fossil


My father found this fossil in Nashville, Tennessee. It appears to be Plasmopora sp. coral fossil. The time period would be Silurian. This website http://tennesseefossils.com/Geology05.php lists formations in that area as Decatur and Brownsport.

  1. I found fossilized coral in Spring Hill. I can send pictures if you would like. I SCUBA and I recognized it immediately, and I know it's old . So exciting.
